Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[SW GangstaRap: Chronicles]

YOU'RE BACK!!

I hadn't seen new stuff from you in a whopping four years! The Star Wars Gangsta Rap video was my favorite piece of work from you, and it's great to see a followup! I was especially impressed at how the body movements have improved. I liked how the character's hands moved, but I was disappointed to find out that this was only a preview.

I just saw the full version on the website, so now I can give a fuller review of it. I thought this was probably better than the original, as it featured a lot more characters and a lot more action of course. Why did you not submit the full version here?

pyropymp responds:

Glad you liked it ;) But please read my author's comments for explanation. Thanks.

[Nothing Between]

Uh, weird

I guess this was supposed to be really philosophical, but I couldn't understand it really. I guess the effects were pretty good and I liked how you put those quotes at the bottom. Some of them were pretty interesting, if hard to follow through. I suggest that next time, you use music that isn't so annoying. I guess it turned out to be just fine for its length. I like your views, but you need to have more action and more philosphical points.

ageReason responds:

This wasn't "supposed" to be philosophical or anything else, really. The fact that you think I had intended for this to mean or be anything, though, says more about you and the effect it had on you than it does about my intentions.

[Simple Truths]

It had its moments

This wasn't terrible, but it needed a lot to improve on. I thought the transition effects were pretty nice, and I liked that Team Fortress 2 dude at the end (forgot his name). The music was okay. I thought that "Kenneth" was some opponent of Barrack Obama, but I guess he's an associate of yours who may have passed away? If so, I'm sorry for the loss of this Kenneth person, as he may have been important in your life. It just needed more action.

Smidly responds:

I appreciate your review and will refrain from mentioning genitalia

[Stenchu Stealth Shinobi]

Parody?

At first I was thinking this was about Naruto because I just associate the term "Shinobi" with that. I also thought the guy was based off of Kakashi, but it was apparently a different thing altogether. But I digress. I was impressed by the animation, especially when he was jumping and slicing at the angle taken from the front. I'm not familiar with the source material, but this didn't strike me as being that much of a parody. In fact, I think you're better off just doing action animations.

Rikimaru-Azlar responds:

Thanks Ericho. I see your' point.

[The Devil of New Haven]

Quite impressive

It's a pity that I wasn't able to view this before (or on) Halloween, but I can at least appreciate it now for what it is. I really enjoyed this movie as I didn't know what turns it was going to take. The ending is what really won me over, as I seriously didn't see that coming. The animation was also great, especially the eyes and the scarecrow's, er, tentacles. The voice work wasn't too bad as well. I hope you had a good Halloween.

Marsume responds:

Awesome! Im glad I could make it so you didn't know what was gunna happen up until the very end.
Thanks for the review :)

[Insanimation 2 Unfinished]

Hey, not bad!

When I first noticed this had no sound, I wasn't expecting anything good. The animation didn't look that promising either. You surprised me by having a lot of interesting stuff going on! I especially liked how the guy changed facial expressions through the red face and stuff. The clone the guy made was also funny. I just need to suggest that you find some good action music and put it to this, because it would have been so much better if it had that!

Jartemius responds:

Thanks man, but, infact, it has got music. :c.

[Rena Wants a Daily Award]

That was very unexpected

I was surprised at how this didn't win an award (of any sort) itself as it is very high-ranked. At first, I thought it was going to be a satire telling about the perils of people on this website trying to win awards. It turned out to be more of a crude joke regarding oral sex. I'm not saying that I'm against that sort of thing, but it just seemed to come off as too easy a joke for me. The animation was pretty funny and I guess the song was fine. I just think you should add in more satire to make something like this more popular.

Little-Rena responds:

This flash was just a joke in itself, lol.

[T E T R I S ' D 2]

Continued?

I wasn't sure what this was supposed to be at first, but then I realized it was a sequel to the first thing you did in this series! I never would've expected that this was going to be an ongoing story and you've really worked hard to put in some good action sequences and an overall colorful setting, especially with the design of the monster. It was also cool to see how they made the blocks.

I was confused at first over what you meant by something not being here until the 10th, but then I realized that was you talking about the game version (when I see "Tetris" in the title of something, I just assume it's going to be a game anyway). I look foward to that and the next sequel!

KobraEditing responds:

Sorry for the confusion

[runescape 4]

Some effort!

It was taking awhile to load, so at first I thought it was just going to be a joke flash (well, really no flash at all) where it was just a white screen the whole time. It's nice to know you went along and actually did something with this. Sure, all it was was "XD" on a purple screen and I didn't enjoy it, but I'm always trying to look on the bright side.

thehoopz responds:

Oh for the love of god not you, fuck off

[The CC BT Collab]

Nicely done!

With the menu, I was thinking this was just going to be another joke flash, but I was pleasantly surprised to find out this actually did have effort put into it! I love WobuffetClock and the one with the grampa from "Hey Arnold!" becoming a zombie. At first, I thought there was like only one scene to choose from but after a bit of fidgeting, I found the actual "Play" button. Happy Clock Day!

GoldenSaucer responds:

Even if it is a spam collab, we still rule.
